You Are Already Known and Held
The bell rings, and the hallway fills with voices that seem to know a secret you were never told. You walk through the crowd feeling like a ghost in your own life, waiting for a place to land that never comes.
But there is a belonging that does not depend on fitting in — a home that exists before you ever walk through those doors. The light that lives inside you was not given by a group, and it cannot be taken away by silence.
It is the one place where you are already known, already held, already enough. You do not need to earn your way into a room where the door was never locked.
